History of Mercedes Benz<\/h3>\n

\"mercedesMercedes Benz was founded in 1926 as the result of a merger between Gottlieb Daimler's Daimler Motoren Gesellschaft and Carl Benz's Benz & Cie. The history of Benz & Cie. dates back to 1885, the year Carl Benz built his first car as the world's first official automaker. The patent for this 'motor car' was granted in 1886 and it was built in Mannheim. Later in 1886, Gottlieb Daimler built his first car, which was not the first car, but was the first car with four wheels (Benz's had three wheels). Then, in collaboration with engineer Wilhelm Maybach, Daimler founded the Daimler Motoren Gesellschaft in Cannstatt, a suburb of Stuttgart. Daimler began producing cars in 1903 under the name Mercedes, named after the daughter of Austro-Hungarian consul Emil Jellinek, one of the company's most important customers at the time. In the 1930s, Mercedes Benz was a very popular brand in Germany. It was considered a reliable vehicle during the Nazi era. After World War II, the brand was overtaken by the numerous discoveries and innovations to its credit, giving the company a reputation as one of the world's best car manufacturers. Quality is paramount at Mercedes at all times and this is reflected in independent quality tests, which show that the brand invariably performs above average. Figures also show that Mercedes-Benz vehicles have very few recalls. Das beste oder nichts!<\/p>\n
